- the scattered radiation is a harmful phenomenon, which creates the effect and worsens the loss of supply.
- it is registered separately with the combined lattice and filter, and subtracts the detected signal from the received signal.
- the scattering pattern is measured integrally, the filter is implemented as a moving element and scattered radiation measures at large angles.
- An essential indicator of the operation of an X-ray mammoth unit is the absorbed patient dose for the examination.
- a partial decrease in the dose of radiation is achieved by reducing the thickness of the investigated object (compression of the chest).
- the object is not single, i.e. Compounds from different substances, that is, the intensity of the scattered radiation by each separate angle of radiation is added from the intensities of the rays, which are scattered by different radiation sources
- the deactivating system has a resolution of both energy and dynamic (scattering angle).
- the device contains a source of X-ray radiation with a diaphragm, which prevents the primary beam from emitting so that it does not need to be used. section in the area, the perpendicular direction of the expan sion of the beam.
- each detector in the collection collects radiation that is dispersed through a shared corner.
